Ernie (Fastest Milkman In The West) - The Hit Co. (热歌公司)[00:00:00]

You could hear the hoof beats pound[00:00:05]

As they raced across the ground,[00:00:06]

And the clatter of the wheels as they spun 'round and 'round.[00:00:09]

And he galloped into market street,[00:00:12]

His badge upon his chest,[00:00:14]

His name was Ernie,[00:00:15]

And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west.[00:00:17]

Now Ernie loved a widow, a lady known as Sue,[00:00:21]

She lived all alone in Liddley Lane at number 22.[00:00:24]

They said she was too good for him, she was haughty,[00:00:28]

Proud and chic,[00:00:31]

But Ernie got his cocoa there three times every week.[00:00:32]

They called him Ernie, (Ernieeeeeeeeeee)[00:00:36]

And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west.[00:00:40]

She said she'd like to bathe in milk,[00:00:43]

He said, "All right, sweetheart,"[00:00:45]

And when he'd finished work one night he loaded up his cart.[00:00:47]

He said, "D'you want it pasturize?[00:00:51]

'Cause pasturize is best,"[00:00:53]

She says, "Ernie,[00:00:55]

I'll be happy if it comes up to my chest."[00:00:55]

That tickled old Ernie, (Ernieeeeeeeeeee)[00:00:59]

And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west.[00:01:02]

Now Ernie had a rival, an evil-looking man,[00:01:08]

Called Two-Ton Ted from Teddington[00:01:12]

And he drove the baker's van.[00:01:14]

He tempted her with his treacle tarts[00:01:16]

And his tasty wholemeal bread,[00:01:18]

And when she seen the size of[00:01:20]

His hot meat pies it very near turned her head.[00:01:21]

She nearly swooned at his macaroon and he said,[00:01:24]

"If you treat me right,[00:01:27]

You'll have hot rolls every morning[00:01:28]

And crumpets every night."[00:01:30]

He knew once she sampled his layer cake[00:01:32]

He'd have his wicked way,[00:01:34]

And all Ernie had to offer was a pint of milk a day.[00:01:36]

Poor Ernie, (Ernieeeeeeeeeee)[00:01:40]

And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west.[00:01:44]

One lunch time Ted saw Ernie's horse[00:01:49]

And cart outside her door,[00:01:51]

It drove him mad to find it was still there at half past four.[00:01:53]

And as he lept down from[00:01:57]

His van hot blood through his veins did course,[00:01:58]

And he went across to Ernie's cart and didn't half kick his 'orse.[00:02:01]

Whose name was Trigger, (Triggerrrrrrrr)[00:02:05]

And he pulled the fastest milk cart in the west.[00:02:08]

Now Ernie rushed out into the street,[00:02:12]

His gold top in his hand,[00:02:14]

He said, "If you wanna marry Susie[00:02:16]

You'll fight for her like a man."[00:02:18]

"Oh why don't we play cards for her?"[00:02:20]

He sneeringly replied,[00:02:22]

"And just to make it interesting[00:02:24]

We'll have a shilling on the side."[00:02:25]

Now Ernie dragged him from his van[00:02:28]

And beneath the blazing sun,[00:02:30]

They stood there face to face,[00:02:32]

And Ted went for his bun.[00:02:34]

But Ernie was too quick, things didn't go the way Ted planned,[00:02:36]

And a strawberry flavoured yogurt sent it spinning from his hand.[00:02:40]

Now Susie ran between them and tried to keep them apart,[00:02:45]

And Ernie, he pushed her aside[00:02:48]

And a rock cake caught him underneath his heart.[00:02:50]

And he looked up in pained surprise[00:02:52]

And the concrete hardened crust,[00:02:54]

Of a stale pork pie caught him in the eye and Ernie bit the dust.[00:02:56]

Poor Ernie, (Ernieeeeeeeeeee)[00:03:00]

And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west.[00:03:04]

Ernie was only 52, he didn't wanna die,[00:03:08]

And now he's gone to make deliveries in that milk round in the sky.[00:03:12]

Where the customers are angels and ferocious dogs are banned,[00:03:16]

And the milkman's life is full of fun in that fairy, dairy land.[00:03:20]

But a woman's needs are many fold and soon she married Ted,[00:03:25]

But strange things happened on their wedding night[00:03:29]

As they lay in their bed.[00:03:31]

Was that the trees a-rustling? Or the hinges of the gate?[00:03:34]

Or Ernie's ghostly gold tops a-rattling in their crate?[00:03:37]

They won't forget Ernie, (Ernieeeeeeeeee)[00:03:41]

And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west.[00:03:45]
